Welcome to the Snake Wranglers Website
The Snake Wranglers is a small group of volunteers who have taken on a mission to relocate unwelcome snakes to remote locations where they will be able to thrive. We do not charge a fee for this service. Rather, we rely on the generous donations from our clients to help cover our expenses. The Snake Wrangler service is 100% funded by client and supporter donations.
There is a lot of interesting and useful content on this site. You can learn about what is available below. To the right is a slideshow displaying some of the hundreds of snakes that our Wranglers have captured and relocated.
